Clear Guard analysis

Toronto Police Service reported an arrest on October 2 following alleged home and garage break-ins in the Weston area. Police allege a residence was entered on September 19 while occupants were home, and jewellery and bank cards were taken. CityNews also reported the police account, which underlies the linked UL Lawyers summary. As general prevention guidance, check that exterior doors latch securely and window locks engage fully, even when someone is home. Keep garage remotes and spare keys away from accessible windows, and secure the door between an attached garage and the house. Test existing exterior lights and clear objects that obstruct views of entrances. Arrange repairs for damaged doors or windows rather than relying on a temporary closure. Physical resistance can add time for occupants to respond and seek help.

Toronto pattern

How Toronto typically gets hit.

A Toronto assessment should follow the individual property: a house with a rear lane, a front entry with decorative glass, and a condo suite present different access and approval questions. For an older home, identify which windows and doors have been replaced before deciding what to assess. For a condo, ask management about the proposed work before arranging installation. For your Toronto property, ask us to review the front entry, sidelight glass, rear doors and reachable basement windows. We check the existing assemblies and access before recommending security film or ARX Guard door fortification. Book a free on-site assessment for a written quote.
